While my plane undergoing a new metal panel...

1. Swapping GNS530W for GTN750
2. Swapping GEM610 for JPI830
3. Adding STEC-901 GPSS to my STEC-30*

*unless I add an Aspen 1000 PFD (see below).

Looking for user feedback on the Aspen. My Nav/Com2 is a KX155 and KI209 indicator (no glideslope). I gather that with the Aspen I would be able to remove my main NAV1 indicator (GI106A). Is there a way to have both the Aspen and GI106A display the localizer/glideslope? My GI106A will be hooked to the GTN750.

How does the GPSS in the Aspen compare to the STEC-901? A friend has a STEC 55X and says that its GPSS is "more aggressive" than the GPSS in the Aspen.

So I am considering an Aspen while my whole panel is opened up anyway and looking for feedback.

Any other gotcha on the Aspen - I like redundancy and the mechanical instruments seem to have fewer "single points of failure".
